Summary

How do you go about drafting an Act of Parliament? In this classic text, Lord Thing, the great Victorian Parliamentary Counsel, sets out the basic rules of the art and craft of creating legislation. Operating in a field where there are no concrete rules, Thring saw the need to formulate general rules of guidance for those inexperienced in the art of legislative drafting and published his work following his appointment as First Parliamentary Counsel. Much of what he says remains relevant now and so, this new edition presents it to a modern readership.
Available since: 12/11/2020.
Print length: 112 pages.

    'But what does this look like in the classroom?'
This question generally occurs to educators when they enquire into evidence-based approaches to teaching - and often they will get to the end of a teaching manual only to find that it remains unanswered.
In The Expert Teacher, however, Darren Mead provides many of the answers.
One of the most universally respected teachers in Britain, Darren has devoted his professional life to attaining pedagogical excellence. In this book he examines in depth what expert teachers do to help students progress their learning and strive for academic success.
He lays bare the concept of pedagogical content knowledge and eloquently explains how to utilise it to overcome student misconceptions, create contexts and connections in learning and teach difficult and important content - empowering educators to transform their sub-ject knowledge into multiple means of representing it in teachable ways.
The intention of The Expert Teacher is to help teachers to reflect on what and how they plan, how they teach and how to improvise around these plans, and to pave the way for deep professional thinking about best practice. It is split into two parts - entitled How is Your Subject Learned? and Expert Teaching and Learning - and provides educators with a variety of practical tools, illuminating examples and flexible frameworks geared to help them underpin and reinforce the very ampersand in expert teaching & learning.
A warning though: this book is not for teachers seeking quick fixes or superficial tricks. The Expert Teacher is for educators who are eager to experience the excitement of knowing and teaching their subject masterfully.
Suitable for all teachers in all settings.

    A “fascinating” guide to war propaganda of WWI and WWII, from “Loose Lips Sink Ships” to “Keep Calm and Carry On”—includes vintage images (Firetrench).  A Guide to War Publications of the First & Second World War is devoted to the printed ephemera that was designed to educate, instruct, inform, and entertain during the first and second World Wars. This includes soldiers’ Field Regulations, updates airmen received about airborne early warnings, bomb sights, and radio navigation, and materials sailors were given to help them identify enemy aircraft and operate new weapons on submarines.   This comprehensive guide illustrates the large amount of material produced during the war by looking at encouraging wartime sayings such as: “Go To IT!,” “Come Into The Factories,” “Keep Calm and Carry On,” “Dig for Victory,” “Lend A Hand on the Land,” and “Walk When You Can.” While showing how other messages warned of consequences to irresponsible behavior: “Careless Talk Cost Lives,” “Loose Lips Sink Ships,” “Keep It Under Your Hat,” and “Be Like Dad, Keep Mum.” Arthur Ward gives information on what propaganda was produced, what items are still available and where to find them, and how to conserve and store vintage printed items.
